Per cubic metre it's actually 9.48 ozs Ag [98g/t, rock s.g. 3.0], that's usd122/m3 there, then Zn at 2.79% would be 184.5lbs at .59 = usd109, 122 + 109 = usd231/m3, or usd77/t ... pretty healthy for right from surface, in an area directly across a fault from a big oxide zinc open pit, likely part of the pit shell in any case, in a very low cost jurisdiction

[edit] - aha, you revised that estimate, yes 70/t is much closer ... should wait until after edit time is up before replying to anything, old SI trick -g- ... 2.79% of 2204.6lbs would be 61.5lbs/t

usa.v - any idea what's driving this puppy to remain undriven? ... b-bands getting quite pinched here
